PRESIDENT GAFFE'S BIGGER PROBLEMS!
Townhall.com ^ | 03.22.09 | Kevin McCullough

Posted on 03/21/2009 9:41:53 PM PDT by jodiluvshoes

hen 84% of the American people, according to the AOL Hot Seat weekend poll, think a joke you cracked on late night television was either tone-deaf/insensitive or worse yet flat-out offensive then you might think you have problems. (Heh who are we kidding? You do! You do!) Just because Britain's largest daily newspaper has a top ten gaffe reel assembled and online before your presidency is barely 60 days old, you might believe that you're the laughingstock of serious members of the world community of leaders. (Again, likely, you're right.) And when you take the time to address an Islamic Republic via YouTube (after they had been burning you in effigy for weeks) with a plea to come to the table of intellects and have a philosophical wine and cheese night about how the world looks in your unicorn-excretion of utopia, but can still hear the ripple of laughter from Tehran five days later, you might even wonder if you deserve it. (Again, batting a thousand on this one champ!)

Now if these elements composed the entire universe of faux pas committed in your time in office then you might even be able to withstand them.

But if these embarrassments followed things like giving the Prime Minister of Britain twenty-five DVD's that were not even compatible with European media players, or accepting priceless gifts from fellow heads of state that were made out of the very historical relics that loosed the chains holding freedom from people like you from being able to achieve your dreams, then it just begin to looks tacky.

But the truth is Mr. President you're not tacky.

You're cheap. Selfish. You bathe in arrogance. And your words sans teleprompter are cruel, cutting, and more times than not confusing.

“And your words sans teleprompter are cruel, cutting, and more times than not confusing.”

And I would add Moronic.

And the total U.S. is profoundly screwed because of Obama and all of his leftist friends putting leftist politics into action.

And some folks are worried that if Bizzar’O is removed from office, we’ll get Joe Biden...

He’s Biden redux.

Biden would be better than Obama because he’d be such a laughingstock nothing would get done in DC. He doesn’t have the clout Obama does.

I like gridlock. When there’s gridlock in DC the American people do better.

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think I’d feel better with dopey joe. We know who he is, and the people that he would nominate. They’re typical rats, not this wild-eyed hate crowd.

Obama really is stupid, isn’t he?

It’s so wonderful isn’t it?

It forgives everything.

Can’t we all just get along and do what he says and laugh at his jokes?

I agree!
Biden is an idiot, but I don't see anger and malice and envy in Biden.
I see all of the above in Obama!

Remember that scene in Apocalypse Now! when the young Captain is getting briefed in the trailer over lunch and the general, referring to Col. Kurts says...

His ideas and methods have become.....unsound

And it’s historical. You bet it is. But not in a good way.
It’s a damn disaster with this whatever the hell he is as POTUS.

You could resign but then you place the rudder of the free world into the hands of a man who is arguably more arrogant than you, far more prone to hubris, and far too dimwitted to know the difference.

I think that's the reason he chose Bumblin' Joe - Impeachment Insurance.

BTTT

Obama has lost this Presidency. I know it is only 60 days, but when he signed the “Stimulus” bill that was written purely along ideological lines and had very little stimulus in it, he effed up not only the US economy but the global economy. The world has reacted accordingly.

Obama, you screwed the US and yourself because YOU are so ideologically blind and rule from the hard left despite history proving over and over again that socialism/communism are failed economic models. Because you are such a Mental Midget (profit to earnings ratio - hello a white President would have had his ass handed him with that gaffe) the world has little chance of surviving this melt down. You own this melt down with the trillions of non-stimulus dollars you signed into law.
